Protocol Review and Monitoring Committee (PRMC) Review

An overview of PRMC scientific review

All studies that involve cancer patients or are designed for cancer research are required to have PRMC review and approval prior to submitting to WIRB.

Use the WIRBEligibility Worksheet to determine whether the study can be reviewed by WIRB before submitting to the PRMC. A letter/email from the PRMC is required as part of the initial review submission as well as changes in research (CIR). The UW WIRB Reliance Team will not process these studies without the PRMC documentation.
